London, Jan 15: A new dating website has been launched where single parents can find love with the help of their sons and daughters.

Websites like mysinglefriend.com already exist where lonely hearts can search for romance with the help of their friends - but mylovelyparent.com is a place where sons and daughters can play cupid.

The site was launched last month by Matt Connolly, 35, after he wanted to help his own mother find love.

He told the Daily Mail that the inspiration for the website came from his mum - a very lovely lady in her 60s, who has been single for too long.

Early last year she asked him if he could help "find her knight in shining armour," he said.

He looked at a number of different.

Two of the most eagerly anticipated films of 2012 would have to be Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom, set to open Cannes on May 16, and Ridley Scott's Prometheus, opening wide in early June. For Entertainment Weekly, Rob Brunner gets a few words with Edward Norton and Anderson, who tells him that there are "two movies that I really love that were both kind of huge inspirations for Moonrise Kingdom. One is a movie called Black Jack that's directed by Ken Loach. The other one is another British movie that's the first thing Alan Parker ever did. He wrote the script. It's called Melody. They're both movies that I only found as I worked on this story. I was looking for movies that are about pre-teenage romance. And there's a Truffaut movie Small Change. That's really one of the inspirations for this movie, because it's what made me start thinking about doing this sort of story.

When looking at Liverpool’s results this season it’s pretty obvious to see why they are in the position they are in. They have dropped too many points against the bottom half clubs in the league compared to the sides above them. The likes of Norwich, Swansea and Sunderland have come to Anfield and got away with something.

Which brings us to today’s game against 11th place Qpr on their own ground at Anfield. On paper, this should be a match that Liverpool take the maximum points against a side that just recently got promoted. But then history tell us Liverpool have only won one of their last seven matches against newly-promoted Premier League sides and it’s these dropped points that are a major reason why they haven’t been challenging for so long.

Qpr have been a bit of a yo-yo club this season. They have...

As the two Manchester clubs battled for top of the league supremacy earlier in the afternoon, 3rd place Chelsea won’t mind the attention being focused elsewhere. Manager Andre Villas-Boas has quietly but confidently shaped Chelsea into a formidable side who are hitting a run of great form and go into today’s Super Sunday live televised Sky Sports game with high expectations.

They arrive at a ground in Loftus Road where the home fans have grown accustomed in seeing their side fail to win. Qpr haven’t won in the last eight attempts at home, whilst Chelsea have won six in their last seven in the league. But Qpr will be up for today’s game. Whilst Chelsea’s bigger derbies are usually against the likes of Spurs and Arsenal, Qpr often see Chelsea as their biggest rivals and their fans will be full of voice on Sunday tea time.

This Tuesday, March 30th, is the long awaited DVD/Blu-ray release date of Glenn McQuaid's I Sell the Dead, and our trilogy of interviews with its cast and crew continues with the one -- the only -- Angus Scrimm, who portrays the character of Dr. Vernon Quint in the film.

Elaine Lamkin: Thank you for taking time to do this interview with me, Angus. First question – how did you find yourself playing Dr. Quint in I Sell the Dead? What was the attraction? And how would you describe the good doctor, whose exit from the film is both hilarious and well-deserved?

Angus Scrimm: In January, 2008, this ruddy-cheeked Irish fellow with a perpetual twinkle in his eye turned up at the Burbank, California, studio where Larry Fessenden was filming the infamous rant I contributed to Jim McKenney's Automatons DVD "extras." Undeterred by what he saw, he offered me the role of Dr.
